Inventor 2017 - 3D PDF Export

[GKPByDesign]

Hey,

I have been amending and updating the 3D part and Assembly template using Acrobat DC, and so far ive been able to name and input my own custom properties, but what is the formula i use so i get the File Name to appear on the document once its saved? I have tried ' FileName' 'File Name' & 'File_Name' but it does not work! any ideas? 

I simply want the PDF name once i export it to appear at the top of the PDF

Nope, but my toy is back home, so I'm out playing ..and didn't want to think ..

Car 56 is being paged to go home.. 

Sorry @GKPByDesign I think the topic got off course a little.

@GKPByDesign

I'm looking into this and another one for a Custom property added

[mcgyvr]

The answer will come... Patience.. 

(I sure can't figure it out though but I'm rusty on the 3d PDFs again)...

[mdavis22569]

LOL ... 

I've actually finding some bugs within this ...related to names and numbers      @johnsonshiue and Martin will be probably hating me again ...

so I'm looking at a 2nd option.

not to be blunt if you guys don't know the answer, can you not spam this post with irrelevant posts? I can add custom properties to for form fine, its simply just the file name. 

I find custom properties work better with no spaces and matching capitals where required.

@GKPByDesign

Sorry for the hijacking, We have fun sometimes,

But I am looking at it this morning already ....

Try:

{{{ topComponent['Source Import'] || "" }}}

Thank you @johnsonshiue   ... I need your decoder book

I think we might need to get Johnson by the ankles and shake those pockets out though still

I only found "reference" to that in the anark core document but I certainly didn't understand it when I ran across it..

Output Specific Attributes of the Top Level Component
SPECIFIC ATTRIBUTES name | value
{{{ item }}} | {{{ topComponent[item] }}} ITEMS="{{{ ['Name', 'Source Import', 'Use Count'] }}}"

This one gets you some neat information too.. 

List All Attributes of the Top Level Component
TOP COMPONENT ATTRIBUTE LIST name | value
{{{ item }}} | {{{ topComponent[item] }}} ITEMS="{{{ getComponentAttributeNames().filter(att => topComponent[att] != null) }}}"

[mdavis22569]

nor I ...

and I was reading over all of those pages .... 

I was going to throw in the towel and just tell them to make custom iproperties ..I can import those all day.

Few more he gave me:

Estimated Cost:   "Cost Center" 

Creation Date: "Creation Time"  (unfortunately there is a timestamp with it )

File: "Source Import"

@mdavis22569

Mike,

Here are a bunch more that you can get with that kind of code..

Sorry about being screenshots.. I'll put it into "something" nicer here in a bit..

[mdavis22569]

@mcgyvr

@johnsonshiue

If I start a new thread, containing Code options, solutions etc for the 3d PDFs properties etc, can we maybe pin it to the top for a bit ? 

We can keep adding to it ... just coding related ...

[mdavis22569]

I wish I could get rid of the time part of that ....
